    Just an fyi, I did a full back with carbon copy cloner to
    another bootable drive in case.

    Then I just install/upgraded my existing snow leopard install
    with mountain lion.

    Went smooth as can be.

    No random beach balls or other funny stuff.

    Saved 2 days of working doing a clean install.

    I think apple has gotten better at the O/S upgrade process.

    Just this morning we took an old iMac from something before Snow Leopard (not sure what) to Mountain Lion. Had to upgrade it to Snow Leopard, then completely upgrade Snow Leopard to the very last version of it before it would allow the upgrade to Mountain Lion. Kind of like spending all day in the kitchen making icing before you can make the cake, but it worked.
